Start of a Storm

Ayanokoji liked having a consistent routine. She never had to wonder how Tamaki would act, or if he'd ever say anything to truly laugh about. She knew her weapon partner loved a certain magazine brand and didn't brush her teeth at night. She knew that students attending Ouran deserved to be there because of their varying wealth; something the new host lacked.

Ayanokoji wasn't OCD. She just enjoyed control.

And Haruhi's presence wasn't something Ayanokoji could control.

"What's gotten your feathers fluffed?" Misa questioned as her meister walked into their apartment.

"Tamaki's added a new host."

"You're mad about that? Come on, we should focus on catching our sixtieth kishin egg, not some pretty boy."

"He's not a pretty boy. He's a piece of scum."

Misa flipped the page of the magazine she was reading. "Sounds like your 'I'm better than you' is coming out."

Ayanokoji ignored her friend and flopped onto the couch. Misa moved her legs to give her space.

I'll prove there's no room for dirt like that at Ouran.

Mom, my first day as a host wasn't too bad. I still can't stand my weapon partners.

Haruhi glanced up at the sky. Yep, her sixth sense was correct. A storm was brewing.

I'll see you at home Mom. She thought as her pace sped up.

The twins entered their expensive and capacious mansion.

"We're home." Hikaru called out.

"You know they're not here." stated Kaoru.

His brother shrugged as they made their way up the stairs.

"Doesn't hurt to try."

"We don't have club today," one twin said.

Haruhi stopped heading to the music room.

"Oh?"

"The others all have family business to attend to."

"Okay..." Weren't they supposed to leave her alone now?

"We have our first mission as a team." Kaoru answered her unspoken question.

"Now?"

The twins simultaneously nodded.

Haruhi's right hand started to slowly clench. "Why do you two have the need to tell me important things at the end of the day?"

"We prefer you aggravated."

Uh!

If the kishin egg just happened to harm one of these guys she wouldn't bat an eye at it.

"I'm not leaving this school until you two transform." She wanted to make sure that she could even weild these guys before they found the kishin egg.

"Some other group's going to finish this before we even get there. Just do it Hikaru." voiced Kaoru.

The older twin huffed, but transformed. Kaoru followed suit. Haruhi reached up to catch them as they fell in their weapon forms, but missed.

"Why didn't you grab us!" exclaimed Hikaru furious. He and Kaoru had switched back before they made contact with the ground.

"I tried to! You transformed, too fast." she said in response.

"So you want us to be slow and risk our lives just so you can do a cool trick?" Hikaru inquired upset.

Haruhi was close to shouting, but checked herself before she replied. "You just got onto me for not grabbing you."

"And your point is?"

Kaoru rubbed his temples. "Stop it! Your fighting won't get us anywhere."

"You stop it Kaoru! You hate her just as much as I do! We were fine until she came along! Now we're at the beginning! It's all her fault!"

Kaoru was about to reply, but Haruhi beat him to it. "Okay." Her voice had changed to one the twins hadn't heard before. They couldn't tell what emotions were behind it.

"We'll find the kishin egg, and I won't interfere. You two can take it down the same way you've always done."

Kaoru was silent. He didn't like this girl, but she hadn't done something for him to hate her… yet.

This has gone too far. If we continue this way we'll become a liability to the team. I need to tell Hikaru to cool it.

"Why didn't you think of that earlier?" Hikaru griped.

The three traveled to their destination on foot and in silence.

If Kaoru thought the quiet at home was awkward when his parents were there, he was proved wrong during the walk. The mood was far worse right then; the silence was oppressing, and everyone's pent up emotions did nothing to help the situation.

"You don't think they'll see us do you?" Hunny inquired from behind a wall.

Mori shrugged.

"Of course they won't see us!" Tamaki reassured.

"Why are we following them again?" the older, but shorter, boy asked.

"To see them take down their first kishin egg!"

"You seem optimistic." Kyoya said as he scribbled something down in his trusty, black notebook.

"I'll prove to you there's nothing to worry about. We're only here to watch and cheer on. We'll be doing team missions again in no time!"
